This Georgetown is apparently a very good team, at least by NAIA standards. They lost only once last year (NAIA Final Four), and a few days ago lost to Louisville by seven, trailing by only one with under a minute left. They've got two big guards that are reportedly very good. With Fredette injured, BYU may have its hands full.

I'm also interested in seeing how the new arc affects BYU's offense, if at all. For Tavernari and Fredette, I suspect it won't make any difference at all, but I'm curious how it will change the offensive motion and defensive sets. I'm not much of a student of the game, but I wonder if the expanded arc won't open up the game better for mid-range shooters, and Cummard may benefit as much as anyone from the change.

I'm just happy we'll be able to watch the game on KBYU.
